Solution

The correct option is A 125 kJ
Since, the formation reaction of CS2 is,
C(s)+2S(s)CS2(l)
Since, the formation reaction of CS2 can also be derived using the given reaction as,
1streaction+2×2nd reaction3rd reaction
Hence, the enthalpy of the reaction,
[1streaction+2×2nd reaction3rd reaction] =ΔH1streaction+2×ΔH2nd reactionΔH3rd reaction =heat of formation of CS2(l)
Hence, ΔHf(CS2)=395+2×(295)(1110)=125kJ
Hence, the answer is option D.
